Welcome to Source of Steel - The Heavy Metal Museum. For the metal head who likes to own or collect physical CDs, Source of Steel is my website dedicated to the love of physical metal on shiny plastic discs. Micro-reviews, thoughts, pics of my own collection and random utterances are abound. The site started out purely as a way of sharing my rarities to like-minded fans, but now (for longevity's sake more than anything) it is open to new physical metal music bits I've picked up, including new releases and other random shit.

Elffor - Unblessed Woods

Hailing from Spain, Elffor are pretty damn obscure even amongst a lot of black metal afficionados. However thanks to a string of releases in quick succession (all of which are of a very high quality) the bands self released albums soon became sought after by those in the know. Mainman Eöl pissed off a lot of the purists by re-recording his early works and releasing them on proper labels, but here is the original first press self released recording of his 3rd album which I was lucky enough to pick up cheap at a festival.
